Demon, how do I get off this?

Apparently the version of CWM you packaged into it ruined my nandroid backup, tells me my md5 checksum is bad.

Then I downloaded the CM7 zip, can't flash that, get an error in CWM.

I also can't get it to reboot into download, it just reboots normally. So now I can't flash back to stock...

All I can say is that I also see my wifi signal go "grey" from time to time, but it's never actually affected performance. My wifi seems to work perfect except for the icon color change to grey, but it's very occasional.

I have many projects going on that have kept me very busy and away from here. How ever I could not end the year with out some ics. (How could I explain that I was new to something "so last year") lol

Any way.... I flashed it this morning on the way out the door...and besides battery rapidly decreasing....in part because of settle time...and mostly cause I can't put my device down. Hahahaha....

Just wanted to say this is great and I didn't expect it to be SOOO effen! Wonderful!

Thanks for all the hard work and time devoted to this project.

One question

Voodoo sound? I really need to increase the sound output.
[Captivate Android Development] cliftomr1082:
Yea I know you do, seen you in action before. I wish you would do something about one paticular guy that is here and just made a resent butt hole remark. He's always doing it here, and in several roms.

You still the man.
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
b-eock? lol
[Captivate Android Development] raruhs:
Thanks Holmes108 and mbc663 for the response!

So this may mean that no services(data/mail/etc..) are running while it is on grey?? Could this be a ICS bug or maybe my phone (which is 1007) is not working properly? I will keep an eye on it and will update is this shows up again. Today it has been ok so far.

Thanks again and Happy Holidays!

Crystal clear
[Captivate Android Development] TheGrub:
Thanks for pointing the finger so quickly.... ;)

I searched.

I know why they go from blue to grey

What is actually happening is, when they are grey, the phone is still connected to the router, has an ip, etc... BUT, no connection to the internet. Browser / email / facebook / market, nothing works... Just like if the internet was down...

I shut wifi off on the phone, turn it back on, phone connects to the router, then icons turn blue ( because the internet now works and the phone is connected to google servers)

I tried changing modems, nothing works.... can't find a fix yet...

Any ideas ?

This happens on CM7 also. Nothing new. It may be Google's problem not ours.

You the man.

One thing I like to ask, I use my phone more than the computer to look at XDA, but one thing I have personally found and I know others use there phones too, is when you search on XDA through phone, it just pulls everything in the world up, related to search, in all forums.

Is this going to be corrected someday, so it searches within a paticular rom. This would greatly help with some of the flaming that goes on.

Just asking, LOL, since I don't know where you hide anymore since you left Mosaic.

[Captivate Android Development] vietn95:
so i've been searching everywhere and i can't find a solution to this. I have all my music on my microsd card and it is mounted under emmc on this ROM. The problem is that my music player or a few music players that i've installed couldn't detect my music in the emmc folder. Are there any way that i can fix this ? I've tried linking it to a sdcard folder but they don't allow it so idk what to do anymore
[Captivate Android Development] Psychemage:
I thought that was fixed already. I don't have the stock player so I quite check right now. I suggest trying Power Amp. It is one hell of a player, and you can select the folder you want it to search for your music in. There's a two week trial in the market, but then the full app is $5. It's worth it.

Edit: I just installed google music from the market and it found my music after a few seconds of scanning.

Just now flashed this Rom.... awesome...!!

Will Report if I find any bug . :)
[Captivate Android Development] color0:
"Android OS" encompasses a lot of different processes, some of which evidently like to suck data down the pipe at some times. If true, I think that the data sucking would be triggered by a bad/fragile flash, and so on some installs it's keeping the phone awake, looking for data, etc. etc. whereas others don't have this issue.

The most robust flash so far for me is a clean install of RC1.0.1, reboot, followed by teamhacksung's Build 11 GPS fix (seems to change kernel properties a bit), followed by restoring all your apps and making sure each one has all their permissions given (Docs and Maps especially). Then manually install pikachu01's Thunderbolt scripts (v2.2.0 and the 60MB LMK addon on my phone right now). You have to use Script Manager or similar programs to manually run each of pika's scripts at boot since the kernel bundled with RC1.0.1 doesn't support init.d scripts AFAIK.

I also froze a bunch of services that I don't need and potentially can drain battery. Exchange, Google Bookmark Sync, Partner Setup, One Time Init, etc. etc. I don't think they individually cause any problems, but removing them from the picture reduces the number of activities you would need to look for if you still have a battery drain problem.

With my current install, OS Monitor reveals nothing suspect; BetterBatteryStats doesn't have any glaring kernel wakelocks. Looks all fine. Interestingly, SetCPU says that the CPU still isn't clocking down to 100MHz (about 70% of my phone's time has been spent at 200MHz) but SystemPanel says otherwise, the average clock speed for my phone at rest -- screen on, no touching -- is in the neighborhood of 165MHz, so it should be clocking down just fine when the phone is awake. I don't know much about kernel dev so I can only wish I knew if it's all in the kernel, or if the ROM is not playing nice when the screen's off.

Still, even at this stage I have 85% left after 14 hours (sync, wifi, gps off; HSPA on, no OC/UV). Definitely good enough for me, so I hope this is helpful to somebody who isn't getting quite the same out of their flash. When the 200MHz minimum clock issue is resolved I'm sure the battery life will get even better. :)
[Captivate Android Development] sam razzy:

If you're talking about Google music, I just installed the app and it found my music automagically. Power Amp has the the option under settings - music folders.
[Captivate Android Development] jjlwork:
I think I found a solution to not being able to pay for apps on market. As it happens it has nothing to do with build.prop as others have posted. What I did was flash gapps7.zip from the team hacksungs ICS thread then do a wipe/clear data from CWM . I initially tried this without the wipe but it did not work. Anyway this worked for me and seems to not have broken anything. Feel free to delete if someone else posted this already.

awfully busy morning on onecosmic's i9000 thread. New links up for the full RC2, including kernel and proper build.prop, for the i897 here... http://ics.samsung-updates.com/cappyvibrant/

no change log yet but...

auto brightness

smooth 720p recording

tethering

were supposedly addressed.

seems like people are having problems with root and usb storage is gone unless in recovery. I havent installed yet but just relaying some info to this thread since the OP's havent been updated. Happy New Year to everyone!!
[Captivate Android Development] color0:
Check the post -- I kept the stock kernel from RC1.0.1. I wouldn't bother finding and flashing it if you're already on something else, they're super fragile and flashing between a few kernels repeatedly brings me a marked drop in performance (smoothness) every time. Fresh clean install is the only thing that works for me. :confused:
[Captivate Android Development] TheGrub:
Thanks but did not fix :(
[Captivate Android Development] Jdelgado:
Thanks this works for me fixing my market issue, the only thing I notice I have seen my signal icon go gray I couple of times and they only way to get it back is to reboot my phone. Going to search here to see what people are saying about the gray signal.

Thanks

Just installed rc 2. The soft buttons didn't work with the provided kernel so flashed back to glitch kernel 14 preview. Got to say I'm experiencing root problems. Love proper device recognition.
[Captivate Android Development] BoldFace:
This happened to me as well. The glitch kernel has been laggy in general with me so I flashed the rc1 kernel and it broke my wifi? It doesn't see any networks and turns on and off quickly
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
the fugu 3.0.8 kernel broke it?
[Captivate Android Development] BoldFace:
Yeah its weird. If I flash the RC1 full rom my wifi works but if I flash the fugu kernel with voodoo sound and color it breaks. What is the kernel in the RC1 full rom? Maybe I'll try the one without voodoo sound.
[Captivate Android Development] xxProphecyxx:
When I flashed the one labeled: FuguModICSRC1_Captivate_voodoo.zip, my wifi did not work either. I used: FuguModICS_RC1_Captivate_voodoo-color.zip and all was good.
[Captivate Android Development] BoldFace:
Ok well at least its not me. I have to say RC2 is a bit snappier than RC1, will hold out on any battery life comments until a few cycles.

How is this for everyday use, bugs and battery life wise? I only had this rom in it's initial form before upgrading. I apologize for asking instead of searching but this thread is very long and since upgrading to a Galaxy S2 I gave my Captivate to my sister.
[Captivate Android Development] xxProphecyxx:
lol... It is tempting. It does really seem that a lot of people are having problems with it though. Especially with the kernel, but I know I can just use a different kernel. Everything from home/back buttons not working, to wifi not working. I really don't want to deal with any of it, I need wifi since I do not use a data plan. And home/back buttons are just common sense.

So... I will follow you tkjeeper :) Test is our for me, and let me know what you think :)

This is only for the Captivate you know, not the GS2. With that being said... I have been using it as my daily driver since Alpha 7. RC1 is very stable and smooth. Very little to complain about. Battery [with help from CPU Master] get around 24 hours with moderate use. 12 - 18 hours with heavy use.

Flashing rc1 kernels (after full wipe) will get you wifi and soft keys. Also these kerenls seem to work, aside for root wich im currently trying to figure out.

Thats how I got them to work factory reset+wipe cache+wipe dalvik. Else the soft keys wither don't work at all (think thats specific to rc2 glitch) or home doesn't work. It might be over kill but its how I got it to work. The kernel cleaner scrip didn't work for me (I admit only 1 go with glitch, so might want to try it with rc1 or other rc2 kernel)

Yup got buttons working WIFI and root working. Can't check gps or magnet at the moment, will get back to you on that.

Hi,

I loaded RC2 for Captivate with the ICS_Captivate_RC2_update.zip Nushor's Kernel from here http://ics.darkirc.me/ Everything seems ok except that I got back the issue with the Market where I cannot download some apps like for example the Gameloft UNO.

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
I had a similar issue. I think I rebooted and it fixed it. If that doesn't work try a wiping cache and dalvik. If that doesn't work try factory reset. RC2 takes a bit of settling in.

Try one of the kernels here. I was unable to get any of the glitch kernels to work. Just remember you might need to wipe for them to work properly.

Glitch kernel is probably the source of most the issues. Flash one of the other kernels , and you might need to flash SU fix, but thats it. Smooth as butter =D
[Captivate Android Development] Tweak4fun:
I've been using RC2 for 24 hrs now. Definitely better than RC1. I'm using nushor's kernel.

The original RC2 from onecosmic seems to have an issue with the kernel (glitch) and also a problem with root. Both of these issues are easy to overcome though.

Here is what I did to make RC2 work. If any of the terms or steps are unfamiliar to you, you should not be flashing this.

From RC1 recovery;

1) Factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik

2) flash onecosmic's ICS_4.0.3_r1-RC2-i9000_buid_prop_fixed.zip here: http://ics.samsung-updates.com/ICSI9000/

3)Flash nushor's kernel ICS_Captivate_RC2_update.zip here: http://ics.darkirc.me/

4) Flash the root fix Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip here: http://goo-inside.me/superuser/Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip

5) Reboot
